This is the classic corporate sign of the beginning of the end.

Typical Maserati Marxists...Speaking of which, when Apple board member Algore's son was released from jail after a pot bust, he was picked up and driven away in a Maserati supposedly belonging to his sister.

For being a liberal all about “energy”, Jobs sure is blowing loads more of it than any other corporate office would normally consume to build.
Liberals are stupid this way: Prius-pollutes the planet far more than a Hummer but because the liberal doesn’t see it then it doesn’t count as pollution.

I would tend to agree. When the higher ups in an organization focus more on their titles, creature comforts, status symbols, etc. and less on the productivity and happiness of the people actually doing the work... Not a good thing. That will only come out (here) if/when details of the internals get leaked. Who knows, maybe the exec offices are the windowless internal spaces and the creative types and engineers get the most & best spaces. But somehow I doubt it.
Interesting architecture but... It does look like a big 0... Wasn't it Apple themselves that helped pioneer the 1 and 0 superimposed as the on/off indicator/control? Zero being off... Not a good omen.

Just think of the United States as an economic zone, not as a nation. A free trade zone that international labor can come and go from as it pleases. Within this zone we have the elites and money masters living in gated communities and other living arrangements that keep them beyond the reach of the peasantry.

Yup. That is how they conceive of it.
All protected by a mercenary armed force.
Jefferson warned against a standing army. He knew the aristocratic class always ended up using it to keep the serf class in line...

Too much glass, too corporate. Needs a redesign : )
